Getting Back in the Swing!
I’ve been out of the art scene for a while now, except for note cards. Finally, finally, finally, I did an full-sized original piece. It seems behind a bit of skill of my usual pieces, but then, I guess it’ll take some time to get back to speed. It’s snowing here, most snow we’ve had…

Some Information about Me….

I Wanted to Sell Out!
But no one was buying. (Warning: Bad art displayed, here) I always wanted to make a living with my art. At first, I wanted to design posters. I assumed that if a subject appealed to me, then it would appeal to other people. However, I think most artists create with that in mind. I’ve been…
